When a business gets slapped with higher costs - be it transport, production, supply, or yes, even taxes or other government regulation- the first inclination is to raise prices and see if the market will bear it. If the market rejects it, then the business will look to trim costs elsewhere (i.e. jobs) in order to sustain profits.Exactly
And if he tries to raise prices above what the market will bear he will lose sales
Why business cannot just “pass along” reduced profits
Then that's where you should be protesting. Washington setting a MW is like swatting flies with a sledgehammer.Many don’t
That is the correct motorcycle.

And if those workers are willing to vote for those legislators, what's your complaint? The solution is NOT to have Washington set a national MW to a level that suits the big blue cities and shoehorn everyone else into it.The problem is that Red States are perfectly willing to fuk over their low wage workers

The same situation exists in blue states. democrats are no better at resisting big donors. Washington is even worse because there's so much more money involved.Small portion of the workforce with little political clout
Easier to pander to wealthy contributors by giving them a low cost workforce

What do they call it again when the cost of something goes up but its value does not? That's exactly what we're talking about.Government doesn't provide a low cost workforce--people who work low wage jobs do. It's not your employers nor the governments responsibility to make your labor worth more. That's all up to you. YOU need to take the initiative to learn a skill to make yourself worth more--not government.
